Joy - Inkspirational Challenge

I saw the inspiration photo at Inkspirational Challenges and immediately was drawn to the pillow with "Joy" on the front of it.  I have a die that I've been playing around with and some pattern paper scraps from a recent virtual crop.  I mashed them together for today's card.  

I used the pattern papers for my background, and the back of a pattern paper that was solid (with a little variation in the color) for my "joy" die.  But I continued that pattern paper theme to cut the small dies within my large sentiment die.  You can see the tiny variation in color on the inlaid pieces.  I used a red buffalo plaid which had three variations of reds, a sweater print for my greens which had two different tones and those tiny white pieces of some flecks of cream. 

This was a fun card for me, as I love piecing dies together.  

I hope you find some time to create today!
